FlowVideo has a "StretchVideo" property that should make it fill the space it covers
Well that was easy. Thanks!
-
Things are looking good thus far!
Is there a way to stretch the FlowContext(FlowControl) video so it takes up the entire space it is covering?
Thanks!

Will the Wall support custom images like the wheel?

Do you have an example of how you have your XAML set up where you are seeing this?
Can I PM you a theme xaml I made at some point today?

Beta 3 is out now with the following:
-
Improvement: The initial Add Games window that shows up for new users has been overhauled with all of the new import options
-
Fix for custom images not drawing correctly
-
Fix for sorting order incorrect
-
FlowControl's "GameContext" was changed to "FlowContext" since it can be for a game or a platform
-
FlowImage now has Stretch and StretchDirection properties
-
Wheel views can now use the new controls
We also have functionality working for putting videos and/or Badge images inside of the wall view items (and in theory wheel or CoverFlow items as well), but we're still fixing a few bugs with those, so that will be in a beta next week.
Fix for sorting order works for the Wall View, but not Horizontal Wheel Views.
Wall View doesn't seem to respect "Rows Integer" For instance if you give rows a value of 2, it will still draw more than 2 rows. It will also act really weird with the way it animates/draws it.
Wall View videos for games won't start playing until you select a game other than the first in your collection.
Wall View doesn't allow me to launch my games!

I found a couple more bugs with the wallview --
- If you're in Bigbox and select genre's, collections or anything that isn't platforms, all the games are in a random, non alphabetical order.
- When you open a platform, genre, collection, etc.. in Bigbox, videos won't start playing until you select a different game.

@bbweiners @damageinc86 What view are using in BannerBox that you are seeing the issue with the clear logos?
I'm not using BannerBox, but it sounds like BannerBox uses Custom Wheel Images. So, I would imagine the HorizontalWheelView should allow you to see the issue.

Beta 2 is out now with the following:
- Views using the BoxArtCoverFactory now respect the GameImage setting instead of forcing Boxes
- Wall view was attempting to draw items several times if you had less items than Columns x Rows causing index errors
- Horizontal Platform Wheel wasn't respecting RotationAmount
- Images in the new WallView were getting cut off because of a UV Coordinate issue and should now show correctly
- Corrected an issue importing MS-DOS games via a drag and drop that would incorrectly set the application path of the game (introduced in 11.9)
Custom Wheel Images are still not populating. Clear Logos are being used instead. I did an all image refresh.

I'm not sure if it was this beta that did it or not, but my bannerbox games view doesn't show banners anymore in bigbox. It shows oversized clear logos instead. I'm guessing it had something to do with it though, since this has been my first time starting launchbox in about a month, and i did all the updates that popped up.
This would be what happens to me too. Do you know if BannerBox uses custom wheel images?
-
The game selection border appears to not be centered correctly. It is thicker on the left side and top. This is very noticeable if you change the thickness from the default value of 30 to a smaller size, say 5. Then look at SNES or N64 games.

Could you PM them to me so I can attempt to debug with them?
Yep. There are a lot of images with them. Do you want them included?

Is there a specific theme you see this issue with?
They're all themes I've created.
-
Also, I've only noticed it thus far using Wheel Views. The Text List View seems fine.
-
Wheel Custom Image Type's seem to not work. It just defaults to clear logos for me. You can reproduce the issue by refreshing all of your images.

Changing = Changed the names of the files.

I've tested on multiple themes. I even verified it by changing the different HorizontalWheelGamesView files to WheelGamesView files, and the problem went away.

Hi,
I've noticed a bug.
When you're using, "View Genre" or "View Series" in Bigbox and a HorizontalWheelGamesView, the first game shows the wrong information. Wrong title, video, images, etc...
This does not happen if you're using a WheelGamesView or TextGamesView.
If you move the wheel left or right and go back to the first game, it then shows the correct data.
Thanks

The only workaround I've found for this is to relabel the folder, Box - 3D, to something else, let Launchbox cache everything, and then switch the label back to, Box - 3D. This seems to force Launchbox to load the 2D boxes and not default to the 3D. Again, this is only for 3 of my systems that have this issue. The other 14 are fine.
-
Hi all,
I have a weird problem. I have 17 platforms in my setup. When using Bigbox and any theme displaying the Boxes view, Platform views showing recently played or favorites, or just using Launchbox and having it display boxes, 14 of my systems show 2D box fronts. The other 3 of my systems show 3D box fronts.
Any ideas as to why?
Thanks!
-
That sounds like an awesome feature. Thanks for the response.

Could anyone clarify what this feature entails --
Add Sort By Options to Big Box (another item in the alphanumeric list) Does this mean that when you're in a platform, you'll be able to sort games by genres, playmodes, release year, etc... when invoking the alphanumeric list, instead of just sorting by title?

I'll be reviewing the clear logos issue in Big Box. I haven't seen it happen yet myself, but with everyone experiencing it, it should be easy enough to reproduce.
I'm not sure if this is obvious or not, but the wheel is having the same issue with any images, not just clear logos.

11.10 Beta Testing
in Beta Testing
Posted
I'm not sure if this constitutes as a bug/issue or not, but when I used Windows Media Player instead of VLC, the navigation in the new WallView while using FlowVideo was very choppy, would pause and eventually crash BigBox.
I know this is a big revamp you guys are working on, and you're doing a great job!
